Being a Chiefs and Royals fan, it's easy for me to like Cleveland's teams and fans and wish them well and success, except when they are playing KC. One of my favorite sportswriters, Joe Posnanski, is a big Cleveland Browns fan. The Indians long-time announcer, Tom Hamilton, is one of my favorite radio broadcasters and would always amaze me how well he knew the Royals and how fairminded he was about them in calling Royals-Indians games. I just now learned that his son Nick has been a Royals scout.
In addition to the two hilarious hastily-made Cleveland tourist videos, there seems to be a lot to like about Cleveland. My friends who grew up rooting for Cleveland teams are fun to be around. They know the pain that being a sports fan can cause, that's for sure. I can definitely relate to a 20+ year NFL Playoff Victory drought, given that the Chiefs have two of them in our history! I'm glad Cleveland ended that drought yesterday.
